How to control the size of H3D file?
Some of the results in the h3d file are classified as optional results and you can stop HX from exporting them to the h3d file.
Weights
Every optional result comes with binary weight.The values are
Strain Rate = 1 = 2^0
Grain Size = 2 = 2^1
Yield Stress = 4 = 2^2
ln(Z) = 8 = 2^3
Weld Strength = 16 = 2^4
Stress tensor = 32 = 2^5
Surface quality = 64 = 2^6
Flow Stess = 128 = 2^7
What is written?
pset variable - H3DSaveOptionalResults controls what is written in H3D file. Value of the variable is sum of values of what results you want to write.
For example if value for H3DSaveOptionalResults is 127.
Then, following results will be written in H3D file,
Strain Rate +Grain Size +Yield Stress + ln(Z) + Weld Strength + Stress tensor +Surface quality = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 64 = 127
This command is written as
pset H3DSaveOptionalResults 127
Example
Let us say you want write only strain rate and ln(Z) then the value is
Strain Rate + ln(Z) = 1 + 8 = 9
pset H3DSaveOptionalResults 9
